More than an just OBDII Scan Tool

Kiwi 4 is a plug and play automotive tool that connects to the onboard diagnostic port (OBDII / CAN), retrieves information from your car's computer, and wirelessly transmits to your smart phone, tablet, smart watch, or PC. Two modes of operation are available on the Kiwi 4:

Smartphone mode behaves like the Kiwi 1/2/3 where a persistent connection with the smart device must be present. This mode enables real-time data to pass to and from the device enabling powerful OBDII apps like Kiwi OBD and other compatible 3rd party apps to be used.

Self-Run mode does not require a smart device to be present. Kiwi 4 can be configured to monitor up to 16 OBDII parameters so that data is automatically logged in CSV format with corresponding date/time stamps to micro SD card for download and analysis to any PC spreadsheet software.

Engineered to outperform all other OBDII devices. Kiwi 4 takes innovation to the next level with 3 powerful new features while retaining the same exterior dimension at only 0.68" thin and the 100% backwards compatibility of the Kiwi 3.

Compatible with 1996 and later vehicles, simply plug Kiwi 4 in and download the Kiwi OBD app to configure your device to enable new features like audible warnings/alerts, data logging, lat/long acceleration without having to rely on permenantly affixing your smart device onto a ridgid surface.

Cross platform compatible Kiwi 4 is compatible with iOS, Android, and Windows Mobile. Kiwi 4 allows for app developers to freely deploy without restrictions like the Apple Made for iPod (MFI) program. As a result, Kiwi 4 is a simple and straight forward making it highly developer friendly.

To ensure a superior user experience we partnered with the world's most popular OBD app developers. Kiwi 4 is compatible with the best apps for diagnostics, performance, data logging, fuel efficiency, driving behavior, track, gauges and more!

Backed this on kick starter. First off the app is utter trash. It intermittently disconnects on htc 10 and iPhone 7 and iPhone 6s. It takes multiple attempts for it to even finally connect and it lies about being connected sometimes. And the battery drain on your device is a nightmare. It drained all three phones by 15+% in the 20 minutes I spent messing around trying to get it to pair.

Then there is the functionality. Over half the app still says coming soon. On top of that, sure the data they specified above is polled but the multigauges and display are practically impossible to read with the letters and numbers being so small making it essentially useless. The real reason I got this was to pull codes on our Mazda cx9 and our grand Cherokee. The Cherokee has an abs light and check engine light. But even after multiple scans. The kiwi4 says no codes found. My $50 obdii scanner from AutoZone even shows the codes and the wheel sensor that is bad!
